Clean
Water
Clean, healthy waters are important to everyone. Our overwhelming, but under-appreciated, dependence on clean water mandates our careful use and protection of our rivers.
Climate & Energy
We are now in the midst of a climate emergency that requires a complete transformation of our energy system to one powered by clean and renewable sources.
Habitat & Biodiversity
Flowing along Illinois’ borders and through its interior are more than 120,000 miles of rivers and streams. Many, if not most, of these waterways exist within or adjacent to agricultural land.
River Health & Resiliency
The rivers and streams of Illinois are ribbons of life, home to an amazing array of species. These are the true treasures found in our rivers.
